Peak

ANEURISM IV has rotted. You have been unplugged. Goodbye.

Satisfying conclusion to Henry's story of revenge, and a great depiction of Medieval life and Sigismund's attempted usurpation of the Bohemian throne. The game doesn't take itself too serious all the time but can tell a compelling and serious story. The combat has been streamlined to make it easier for the average joe, but there's still more depth to it compared to many other melee combat based RPGs of recent times.

Nice homage to the souls franchise, short and sweet game that could be a solid foundation for a longer more fleshed out sequel

This is how it happened... This is how the Batman died.

Lead the nation of your choice
as four centuries of detailed history come alive
in the grand strategy game that defined the genre
Europa Universalis IV simulates the early modern world
from the renaissance to the age of revolution
Shape the destiny of millions as you relive or rewrite the past
if you can master the arts of war diplomacy and trade your nation will flourish and history will be yours for the making

A near perfect sequel to a beloved series bringing us back to the zone. Full of returning characters and callbacks but also expanding upon the STALKER narrative in a natural and interesting way. Like the zone, it is a true miracle this game exists at all.

Der Krieg ist verloren

Visually striking and technically brilliant, the most refined of all the souls games. An excellent potential narrative end for a great series.

A real journey, a lot of varied bosses and areas, amazing trio of dlcs and a great overall narrative
